In the world of IT Service Management (ITSM), organizations are constantly evaluating and updating their software to ensure they have the most up-to-date and effective tools to meet their business needs. However, introducing new software can be a complex process that requires careful planning and management.

A "Request for New Software" template is a pre-defined format for requesting the installation of new software. It typically includes fields for the requester's name and contact information, the reason for the request, the name of the software, the expected benefits, and other relevant details. By using a standardized template, organizations can ensure that all requests for new software are documented in a consistent and organized manner, which makes it easier to track, prioritize, and address them.
